Bluesky has gained a million new users in the last three days.

The platform posted about the milestone this afternoon, which it crossed after Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered a ban on Elon Musk’s X yesterday as part of an ongoing feud with the platform.

Apparently, enough are headed to Bluesky to drive its iOS app to the top of the Brazilian App Store, as TechCrunch writes.

I'm sad that a lot of people couldn't perceive the mastodon in the room.

Finding the right mastodon instance was incredibly annoying. I use it, but barely. Most of the artists I follow are on Bluesky, anyway, which is a lot easier to use.

Mastodon allows you to transfer your followers when you migrate, so it's not a big deal if you change your mind about the first instance you had chosen.

Transferring also means losing your post history, it all gets stuck on the instance you left behind.
